Can anyone provide a hint for an easy way I can cause a process to enter into and exit from an iowait (uninterruptible sleep) state at will, without tinkering with the hardware, and without doing something that will adversely affect other running processes?
This is not a kernel development question, but I'm betting some kernel hacker knows how I can exploit a syscall to do this somehow.
Thanks,
